    OPEN EVSE Kit (Older v 1.0 ) **SOLD**

    Hello, I bought this around 2 years ago when I thought I would be building an EVSE station into my house. I ended up buying one instead. I'm not sure how much it's worth but it does include the Leviton Charging Plug which was around 120$ so I'm selling the whole thing for that. It also...

    Hybrid plug in owners keep unplugging me

    This has happened to me twice now. The first time I had driven 60 miles to a lecture, plugged in parked and walked 20 mins to the lecture hall only to have my leaf txt me that it had been unplugged 30 mins later. SO I had to leave the lecture in the middle go back and plug in my car. By the...

    No Grid Power = No Solar Power

    Interesting link... I'm not really sure how solar is making us less vulnerable to an attack with the current rules governing solar power generation without grid power. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-04-23/rooftop-solar-seen-protecting-u-s-power-grid-from-attack.html"...

    Good deal on OEM Nissan 'Emergency' EVSE?

    It wasn't visible we were dumb and left stuff in the back while watching a movie and I guess someone thought it might be something of value... I didn't get a tenneau cover maybe I should have. At any rate all they got was a backpack full of dirty clothes.. And our EVSE of course, I'm wondering...

    Good deal on OEM Nissan 'Emergency' EVSE?

    Yeah they did, but our deductible was 500$ and we had to replace the back window that they smashed out with that. We got 1000$ for the charger (they said we could buy a cheaper one if we wanted) so it would be nice to recoup some of the deductible by purchasing a lower cost one if possible.

    Good deal on OEM Nissan 'Emergency' EVSE?

    Our leaf was broken into and the thieves stole the EVSE that sits in the cargo area. A new one is around 1000$ from Nissan, anyone know of a cheaper place to buy one? Please note that our car is leased so we will need an OEM to return with the vehicle when we give it back. Thanks!

    No Grid Power = No Solar Power

    I think a great system would be one where I could charge up the car and use its batteries as backup for the house. (Maybe the system wouldn't work unless the car was plugged in and was able to feed a certain amount of amps back into the house) It seems like if we want to move away from a...

    No Grid Power = No Solar Power

    I was looking into buying a solar system and was told by the sales person that here in California PG and E requires your panels to cut off power to your house if there is a grid failure. One of the main reasons I was going to get one was so that I have a backup for the Leaf. She said that since...

    Public L2 charging $1 - 1.50/h reasonable?

    Yeah I think most of the price gouging is more from pure ignorance on how the charging stations work. Most people don't even know how long it takes to charge a car or don't do the math to figure out how much is it actually costing the person charging. Even the designers and marketers of the...

    Public L2 charging $1 - 1.50/h reasonable?

    I was in Oakland, Ca the other day attending a festival. There were spots on the street but I figured I might need a little more juice for later so I went to park in the downtown garage which has charge point stations. I don't mind paying a dollar an hour, but the charge point chargers there...

    I saw 2 volts and 6 leafs yesterday!

    Sorry I posted this thread awhile back and then forgot about it. I live in Berkeley, Ca I know that in a 3 block radius there is someone with a Ford Focus Electric, 1 Volt and 2 leafs (including mine) :) .

    I saw 2 volts and 6 leafs yesterday!

    I was pretty impressed, driving around town doing errands I saw 6 leafs and 2 volts yesterday. I have noticed that I am seeing at least 1 or 2 leafs per day and a volt every other day. This is way up from a year ago when I would see one every week or so. Anyhow, just thought I would share.

    Nissan's LEAF to Home Power Control System V2H PCS

    This is an interesting concept... I was wondering what would stop people from filling up at a free public station and then using the power at home...

    List of all EVSE access cards?

    Forgive me if this has been mentioned in another thread (this might make a good sitcky if it has) but does anyone know of a list with urls that I can use to send for all the various company's EVSE access cards? It seems like there are quite a few and it would be great if I had them all at my...

    Random Beep when parked in garage

    I was having the same issue and confirmed that my mysterious beep was being caused by an app called Greencharge which runs automatically every hour or so and queries for carwings charging updates.

    Quick Charge CHadeMo is working in San Francisco East Bay

    Just FYI, I work at Bishop ranch and charge there daily each morning for a couple of hours on the L2. I haven't had any problems yet. The right side of the QC has been down for weeks, but the left side seems to be functioning okay. I don't have QC so I haven't tried it out. If the L2 goes...
